[Theyra]

As Voi is walking he senses Inari following him, "Yep, those exercises are working", Voi thought to himself. Voi stops and said "Inari, I know your following me.

She jumps down, landing next to him. "Where are you going?"

Voi kneels down to Inari and told her, I'm going to a tower to meditate.

[Skyline United]

She jumps down, landing next to him. "Where are you going?"

Voi kneels down to Inari and told her, I'm going to a tower to meditate.

Her tail sways freely, "Can I come?"

[Theyra]

Voi kneels down to Inari and told her, I'm going to a tower to meditate.

Her tail sways freely, "Can I come?"

Sure, just be quiet when I start okay?

[Skyline United]

Her tail sways freely, "Can I come?"

Sure, just be quiet when I start okay?

She nodded and started following him again.

Apophis laughed with glee inside his cell, his humongous snake form curled up around his bed.

The moon was full. The planets were aligned. The Blood of the sky had come alive.

He could feel his power growing.

Tonight.

Tonight they would be free at last.

[Italios]

Valkyrie nodded. "A little."

He smiled, "I know a place where we can go."

"Where?" she asked curiously.

[Skyline United]

He smiled, "I know a place where we can go."

"Where?" she asked curiously.

He held out his hand, "I'll show you."

[Pot4toes]

"Oh."

The dance continued. She wasn't really paying attention to the space or time around. They even passed Regalion and Hades without noticing.

"I'm sorry, I never really knew until now. It isn't fair how people like you, like us, are treated."

The song was coming to a near end.

"I enjoyed this dance with you, Loki. Maybe we should do this more often."

Artemis then came close, and kissed Loki, lips and all.

He wasn't exactly expecting it...

But he definitely enjoyed it.

"We should definitely do this more often."

She smiled.

"Sounds like a plan."

[Castle Crashers]

"I'm fine with anything," Nyx replied, "I'll eat whatever you are--unless it's white chocolate or something." She'd never liked any food that had to do with light, especially white chocolate. It simply made her sick from the first bite whereas dark chocolate only seemed to boost her happiness. She couldn't drink anything "lite", and always had to have the dark or bitter side of things. But, they were absolutely fantastic to her. Who was to say that was a bad thing?

Hyperion was already half way through a pumpkin pie. "Come on, have some! It's really good!"

Nyx hesitantly took a slice for herself; she'd never had it before. She'd never really tried it, having tried most everything else, which was a surprise that she'd never thought of this dessert. She loved desserts; she'd just never remembered this one. She then lifted the slice, opening her mouth, and taking a bite. It was like nothing she'd had before. "Oh mhai Godh," She spoke with her mouth full, "Thish isn delicioush!" She continued to devour the piece before grabbing another, and then another. She couldn't believe she'd missed out on such a delicacy for so long.

[Free Empire of the Low Isles]

Raphael stood in the middle of the quiet courtyard of New Olympus, biting his lip and standing next to Tet, the God of Games.

"Hello?" he asks to the darkness, "Anyone there?"

[Finsternia]

Raphael stood in the middle of the quiet courtyard of New Olympus, biting his lip and standing next to Tet, the God of Games.

"Hello?" he asks to the darkness, "Anyone there?"

Tet raised his hand and crystal light flooded the courtyard. "It's too silent... Very, very silent..."

[Syrixces]

Old Canaan Juvenile Hall

Apophis sat in his cell, his form curled around the bars.

Now.

He suddenly released his power, sand furling through the air, the light turning red, and the bars and cells around him instantly falling apart to dust.

Apophis laughed, as he slid from his cell, his fellow inmates free at last.

He nodded to Arachne, who scuttled off, and disabled the security system in the local block system.

One last friend to free.

Kraken stood up in his now vaporized cell.

He shrugged, and followed Apophis.

When Apophis gave him hr signal, he rammed his fist into the wall in front of him, voer and over again, until it revealed a dimly lit cell, with a single figure chained up inside. Tharizdun.

Apophis shrieked with glee, and spit his acid upon the chains, melting them instantly.

"You are free my lord. Free at last."

Tharizdun stood up, his tall frame blocking out the light.

Yes I am. But for now, we have important work to begin.

Tharizdun clapped his hands, staking them all to New Olympus.

He and his fellow inmates strolled through the empty school.

Time to take back what was rightfully theirs.

God

In a flash of light, there stood God, in his pristine white suit.

"What is the meaning of this trespass?"

Taking in the trespassers, he gasped.

"Tharizdun? How?"

The elder deity laughed, and snapped his fingers, blue chains of steel and ice erupting form the ground, and enveloping God, binding him to the ground.

Oh, You know the answer to that, Uncle.

He smiled, and waved, as his chains slowly wound around God, enveloping him in ice, before suddenly swallowing him up and transporting him to Tartarus.

Now let us begin.

He snapped his fingers, summoning the partying students back to the school, as he walked into God's office, and kicked his feet up on the desk.

He leaned in and flicked the microphone, whispering in,

Now, who wants to play a game?

Now, who wants to play a game?

Tet
Tet raised his hand higher, enveloping the area more with light. "Who's there?!" He called into the vast darkness. He had a bad feeling about this. And who in their right mind uses the speakers during the dead of the night? Nobody knows. And that's what making the God of Games worried.

Regalion, Hades
Hades is still shouting and spouting nonsense to Regalion, something about rudeness towards him and his wife and blasphemy. Regalion just had a face of done-ness portrayed and he slapped his palm across Hades' face, charged with dispelling magic. The Lord of the Underworld snapped out of his drunken state and looked at Regalion with confusion. "You're drunk. Terribly drunk. I'm regretting that I didn't record it." Regalion took a glass of iced tea and drank deep. "Hey, let's return to New Olympus. It's quite late already." They left the palace and reappeared in the empty yard where Tet and Raphael are in and Regalion raised his hand, moonlight flooding the area. "Now that's better." He turned to the pair, somewhat confused at what is happening. "What happened?" Hades tensed beside him, fumbling his robes.

Apophis

The humongous snake god leered above them, growing to his full height, 666 feet in length, his body curled around the columns of the building in front of them.

Lighting crackled, illuminating his figure, as he reared up.

WE ARE HERE, CHILDREN

[Italios]

"Where?" she asked curiously.

He held out his hand, "I'll show you."

Valkyrie took it.

Hades
Hades trembled, his eyes grew wide as he saw the snake god looking down at them. "You... You were banished and chained down! H-how did you escape?!" The God of the Underworld sent spikes from the ground, thinking his efforts can bring down the ancient entity.

Regalion
Regalion looked at the danger in front of them with no emotion. He summoned a book and searched a passage in it. "The great Lord of Chaos, Apophis or in other places, Apep. Ra already slew you... Came back from the dead?" His golden eyes burned and he uttered two words. "Ryssos Teyeris!" The Dragon God was enveloped by fire and transformed into a gigantic dragon and snarled at the snake god. "What is your business here in New Olympus?" Regalion knows that he cannot win against this monster. But he knows they need time to escape.

Tet

Tet stood there, unable to move. We are weakened. We are young. We cannot compete with these... these monsters... He shuddered as Hades sent the spikes towards the snake god and Regalion turned into a dragon. He hated violence. Violence will only produce blood and death. "We have no chance... We must retreat..." Tet whispered at his friends.

Tet whispered at his friends.

Apophis laughed, a dark, sinister thing.

You want to fight me? Fools.

He lashes out, spinning around the spikes, and winding around the dragon, clamping his jaws down hard on the dragons neck, his venom leaking in.

He shook his tail against the ground, and the ground erupted into flames around them, circling in the small gods.

He let go of the dragon's sagging, bloated neck.

We have come to claim what is rightfully ours.

Tet

"REGALION!" Tet rushed to his friend, now slowly reverting back to his humanoid form, his neck bearing huge puncture wounds. He held his hand over them, showering it with crystal light but with no effect. "Regalion?! Regalion!" Tet shook his friend and cried, looking up at the hideous thing that bit him. "You will pay for this!" He shouted almost maniacly, his aura now burning dangerously. "YOU DO NOT MESS WITH RULERS OF HEAVEN YOU FOUL SNAKE! I WILL SKIN YOU ALIVE AND ROAST YOU!" He held his friend closer, looking as both feeble and malignant at the same time.

Hades

The God of the Underworld stood between Apophis and his friends, signalling Tet to leave with Regalion. He raised his arms and the ground ripped open, feral hellhounds coming out to attack the serpent god. "Tet, go! Leave!"

Regalion

The bite felt like someone drenched you in acid. Something worse than acid. Regalion nearly fainted after Apophis let him go, his breathing dangerously failing. I cannot die. I cannot die. I cannot die. He raised his face, only to be showered by Tet's tears. "I... I cannot..." He said to the child god as his vision grew dim.

[Theyra]

As Voi was about to leave the school, he was overcome with dread, Wait, what is that? Voi starts to concentrate and felts a old, dark presence in the school. "That presence, it's not like Mason's anger but, something else, something darker and older. Voi eye's starting glowing bright blue and he summons his sword. "Inari, get back to Mason and warn him and Mair that something has entered the school and to be ready to fight. " I will try to find the entity and join you three after I'm done". Voi then rushes to find the source of the darkness.

Apophis chuckled, his tongue slipping out of his crooked grin.

I warned you.

He lashed out with his tail, slamming the hellhounds aside, as he slithered up in front of Tet, learing down, his fangs dripping venom.

Do you feel like a ruler of heaven, Tet? Do you?

[Finsternia]

Tet

"REGALION!" Tet rushed to his friend, now slowly reverting back to his humanoid form, his neck bearing huge puncture wounds.

Do you feel like a ruler of heaven, Tet? Do you?

Tet

He glared at the snake god angrily, tears flowing down his cheeks. "Yes and I will hold that title with pride." Tet vanished with a blinding burst of light, blinding the snake god temporarily. He appeared with Regalion a few meters away and carried him on his back. He turned to Apophis. "And I will show you." His hand glowed and it exploded into small exploding balls of eldritch magic, all homing to Apophis. "I may or may not want to dismember you but I will see you next time. I have a friend to tend to." And Tet and Regalion disappeared before Apophis can reach themm

Hades

Hades smiled as the God of Games fled. Now it's my turn... He raised his hand and now more spikes travelled to Apophis, surrounding him completely. Let's see if you can evade that... Hades adjusted his glasses, calculating his next move. This guy is a fucking ancient. How can I even fight him... He then finally decided to summon his most valued weapon, the Helm of Darkness. He held it in his hands before wearing it, a grim and twisted thing it is. He wore it, his eyes now red burning pits in the smoking shadows of the helm. The others must show up immediately or else we are all doomed...

[Free Empire of the Low Isles]

Wherever Tet and Regalion went, Raphael followed. He appeared next to them in the same flash, still in his Red Death costume.

"What's wrong? Let me see him." he says urgently.

[Skyline United]

He held out his hand, "I'll show you."

Valkyrie took it.

They teleport to a distant sand dune. Sever torches lit up with crimson flames around them.

He smiles, "I come here when I need time to think, it's quiet."

[Theyra]

Voi following his soul sense rushed to the courtyard to find Hades and a huge snake. "That the thing that I sensed and it' felts old ,very old but", Voi looking at Hades, "I have to help him" Voi runs to Hades side with his sword at the ready and his left hand glowing with energy.

[Syrixces]

Apophis chuckled, his tongue slipping out of his crooked grin.

Apophis fell back as the magic hit him.

He shook his head and giggled. That tickles

He hissed, and slammed his tail, destroying the spikes.

Helm of Darkness? I am darkness. And I'm not the only one here.
